AWS Technical Essentials Practice

The correct answer is the component that provides isolated locations within an AWS Region for redundancy: Availability Zones. Availability Zones are distinct physical data centers that each AWS Region contains, and they are designed to be independent from one another. This independence allows them to provide high availability and fault tolerance. When deploying applications across multiple Availability Zones, organizations can ensure that if one zone fails, the others can still operate, thus enhancing the application’s reliability and uptime.

CloudFront, the Internet Gateway, and AWS Lambda serve different purposes. CloudFront is a content delivery network used for distributing content globally with low latency, but it does not provide redundancy within a region. Similarly, an Internet Gateway facilitates internet access for resources in a VPC but does not involve data center isolation or redundancy. AWS Lambda is a serverless computing service that runs code in response to events but does not directly relate to geographical isolation or redundancy like Availability Zones do.
